چکیده
Bayesian classi cation addresses the classi cation problem by learning the distribution of instances given di erent class values. We review the basic notion of Bayesian classi cation, describe in some detail the naive Bayesian classi er, and brie y discuss some extensions. C5.1.5.

Classi cation using Bayesian Neural Nets
Recently, Bayesian methods have been proposed for neural networks to solve regression and classi cation problems. These methods claim to overcome some di culties encountered in the standard approach such as over tting. However, an implementation of the full Bayesian approach to neural networks as suggested in the literature applied to classi cation problems is not easy. In fact we are not aware...
متن کاملAdjusted Probability Naive Bayesian Induction
Naive Bayesian classi ers utilise a simple mathematical model for induction. While it is known that the assumptions on which this model is based are frequently violated, the predictive accuracy obtained in discriminate classi cation tasks is surprisingly competitive in comparison to more complex induction techniques. Adjusted probability naive Bayesian induction adds a simple extension to the n...
متن کاملBinary Feature Selection with Conditional Mutual Information
In a context of classi cation, we propose to use conditional mutual information to select a family of binary features which are individually discriminating and weakly dependent. We show that on a task of image classi cation, despite its simplicity, a naive Bayesian classi er based on features selected with this Conditional Mutual Information Maximization (CMIM) criterion performs as well as a c...
متن کاملModels and Selection Criteria for Regression and Classiication
When performing regression or classi cation, we are interested in the conditional probability distribution for an outcome or class variable Y given a set of explanatory or input variables X. We consider Bayesian models for this task. In particular, we examine a special class of models, which we call Bayesian regression/classi cation (BRC) models, that can be factored into independent conditiona...
